Hachi’s rhythmic rock number “Panda Hero” has exploded in popularity, earned a spot in the hall of fame, and surpassed a million plays.

Since it’s an up-tempo track, if the original BPM feels too fast, try slowing the tempo a bit for practice.

The guitar uses a lot of cutting throughout the song, so aim for a crisp crunch tone.

Using a single-coil pickup guitar like a Stratocaster or Telecaster will make it easier to get a sound close to the original.

The song itself features many repeated phrases, so it should be easy to learn.

Give it a try!

Orangestar’s “Kaisei” gently expands with scenes of summer mornings and slipping through back alleys.

It portrays someone trying to move forward while carrying the pain of parting, and IA’s transparent vocals convey those feelings directly.

The soaring high notes evoke a clear, cloudless sky, while the more conversational phrases conjure up a fresh yet bittersweet moment of youth.

In terms of performance, it’s approachable for beginner bands: the guitar work shines with cutting and power chords, paired with a four-on-the-floor bass line.

The drums also make it easy to lock into the rhythmic core, and the more you synchronize with the breezily unfolding guitar solo, the more you can feel the song’s sense of breadth.

A Vocaloid song with a catchy intro that we’d love you to try as a twin-guitar arrangement.

The guitar parts are generally easy, but watch out for the tapping phrases that appear in the solo.

The bass mostly sticks to root notes, but a slightly tricky phrase comes in before the chorus, so practice to keep the tempo steady.

The drums feature lots of tight fills, so stay mindful to keep the rhythm from slipping.

For sections that feel too difficult, simplify them at first and gradually move closer to the original as you improve.
